Google Docs is a wonderful web-based program. It allows for collaborative work to be made easy. Google Docs is an online office suite of programs. It has a word processor, a spreadsheet program, a presentation program, and a forms program. It allows you to create new or upload any existing files to use, share, and store online. This crash-proofs your favorite documents. If your computer goes down, any documents uploaded to Google Docs will live on and be accessible from any computer connected to the Internet. Even better, Google Docs allows users to collaborate with others in real time or asynchronously.
